…A s the school year came to a close last spring, I had an idea for a column. A tirade, really. Rather than study for the impending finals week, make headway on the 14 papers that would be due in the next week or even make the rare proactive choice to begin packing, I was going to write an article about my take on Central Student Government elections. I knew that I was not alone in thinking participating in CSG i...…
…I t has been posited that were it not for the Democratic National Committee’s tactics and deep-rooted support for Hillary Clinton, Bernie Sanders would have been the blue candidate and would have been victorious over President- elect Donald Trump.

…T here’s something cathartic about parody, especially when it’s directed toward the politically powerful. Donald Trump is somewhat unique in this respect — not just with regard to Alec Baldwin’s famous appearances as him on SNL, but in the way many Americans have started to talk about him in day-to-day life. Other politicians have, of course, been the target of parody (Sarah Palin and Barack Obama), but none have garnered s...…

…M y childhood in Romania was pretty basic. I was raised in a conservative society and was fed American entertainment 24 hours a day. Everything, from the movies I watched to the books I read, came mostly from the U.S. When I was 10, I was in a bookstore with my father when I spotted a notebook that I wanted to buy. I asked my father for it, but his answer was a clear “no.” My response came just as clearly: I sat down on the fl...…
…N ow that the midterm elections are over with and Democrats won the popular vote in the House by the largest margins since Watergate, it is safe to turn our attention to 2020, albeit a bit early. Despite some rumblings from Ohio Gov. John Kasich, the Republican presidential nominee for president will most likely be Donald Trump. On the left, though, a competitive race seems to be shaping up, giving Democratic voters as many c...…

…T here is nothing like a fall afternoon at the Big House. A football game, a great band, discerning fans and lots of excitement. About 110,168 fans on a regular basis, not counting the vast TV audiences, couldn’t be wrong. But there is another storyline here.
